Re: Last 16: Match up 6!: Marco vs. Gol D. Roger

^
I think Marco can only regenerate limited amount of damage. No DF is perfect, that's the main rule.

Hm, Marco tells Roger about Luffy and Roger retires from the tournament? Or Marco retires because he finds it pointless to fight his dad's rival? I find it hard to imagine a battle between those 2.
So, I can only hope my choice will be a troll.

Re: Last 16: Match up 6!: Marco vs. Gol D. Roger

Jolly Roger could have been defeated by Shiki's crew? Nah, I don't think so... Some of us could agree that Marco > Luffy but could you guys agree the Garp > Marco? Garp have been chasing Roger all the time but never caught him until he gave up because of the incurable sickness Roger got.

A > B and B > C doesn't make A > C, I just have to throw this out here.

We haven't seen Roger do anything and we don't even know how he defeated Garp, WB and so on. It could be like the way Shiki got defeated, even tho' it's unlikely, but we still don't know.
Personally I don't think Roger should have been in the Tournament from the start, he wins on his reputation and it may be with good reason, but we don't have anything as a ground.

This sums up perfectly why I voted for Marco. Luffy beat Enel not by strength, but by luck. Rubber > Electricity, and were Luffy to have any other fruit but the same strength he would have lost badly and died. Even in this tournament, Buggy beat Killer not by strength (It's buggy, seriously) but because his fruit is such a good counter. Luffy seems to be a lot like Roger when he was younger, and a lot of Luffy's matches have been either won or majorly affected by outside circumstances. We have no way of knowing if Roger was the same.

Re: Last 16: Match up 6!: Marco vs. Gol D. Roger

Luck can be trumped by being heavily outskilled. I believe Roger was WBs equal if not superior (even by a small bit) which should already put him in a greater league than Marco, that and when you think about it, even though Enel was rendered useless against Luffy because of Rubber, he still managed to give him a hell of a fight. If Rayleigh and WB are anything to go by, i have a hard time seeing how Marco could beat Roger.

Though thats if a real fight between them was to happen. In this case we have to go by feats and we have seen more of Marco than Roger... So Marco should IMO win

Well, I don't want to waste Roger here. He had a long road too then suddenly lose because he didn't show anything. But isn't it fun to sometimes use imagination on how Roger could fight? Roger being equal against WB and they even fought several times but this was unseen. Here's some more of your A > B> C. Roger = Whitebeard. Whitebeard > Akainu > Marco. Mehehehe.

If the filler would count here, then we can say that Roger is a swordsman and that would differ from Luffy. We can also imagine that Roger has the Ancient Weapon which is something everyone wants and we could say that this is very powerful. Wealth? Fame? Power? Gol D Roger has 'em all!
